Hey! It’s Curtis Andrada. If you’re reading this, it means I’m already dead. What a bummer! I didn’t want my family to have to write this about me as I know how hard it’d be. (And I also didn’t want the funeral home to be in charge of it!) So I figured I’d write my own obituary, in my own words.
First things first -- the facts. I was born in the Eugene,OR to Karen and Larry. I didn't attend much school growing up until I graduated with a GED and decided to take on the world by attending university at Oregon State. I studied psychology, a subject I’ve always loved. College was rough. After some college, I decided to go to work at taco bell, then OFD, where I ended up staying for over 5 years. I met so many amazing people there. I met my wonderful wife Kendra Goforth in 2004 for the first time then we were nuts and went on to have 1 kid together, and 1 each while we were separated for about 10 years in between, all of whom were a handful and a half, but my greatest joy and pride in life.
As you know, my family means everything to me and I hope they are able to move past my death with strength in their hearts. To my family: please know how much I love you, how proud I am, and how I can’t wait to see you once you get to wherever it is I’m going.

No services will be held (at my request!), but I think the kids will be planning some type of party for me. Please attend this party with joy in your heart and only remember the good times. Also, no flowers please! I was never able to keep a plant alive and wouldn’t want to continue that tradition after I passed anyways.
